Abstract:
Market plays a vital role for the traders as well as the people around. It is a common platform for buyers and sellers. In a wholesale market, the goods come from different parts of the state. It is equally important for local farmers whose produce is dealt in the market. Market is unique in its own way. Market hours begin with early morning and end till the goods get sold. The duration of market differs from place to place as well as it depends upon the commodity which is to be dealt.
The market is located in Panvel. Market begins at midnight and shuts by afternoon, after which the market remains unused.
This research aims at re-planning the market with respect to its function, services, hygiene and circulation. Also, planning an additional activity that will be carried out after the market hours which can keep the market alive after regular hours. Such plugging activity would invite other residents to the area and also would improve interaction.
